This New Year's Eve Outfit is a Cinch

Well, well, well Mr Lionhead door knocker belt, I bet you think you got this in the bag for best belt of 2010 and I can understand your bravado. I will always advocate a Gold Lion with its lucky Leo charm and symbolic strength, it rings very Anne Klein meets Charlemagne

And that's always the proper look to send the old year sailing out in style

and you know what pair this with a sheer tuxedo shirt, "leather" matchstick pants and a gold platform slingback and dance right into 2011
